In this short documentary, I tried to answer some of the common questions that I usually get about shipping. The footage I took myself using fairly basic cameras that I could fit in my pocket while I was on the job as a deckhand. The story follows me on a six month journey around the world on a container ship which was on a run between New York and Singapore via the Suez Canal. This was my first time going to sea on a large ship so everything was relatively new to me, therefore please excuse the couple of shipping terms I misused (such as saying "license" when I should have said "credential"). I have been on many ships since and will continue to ship out for the foreseeable future. Thanks for watching.

A container ship travelling to Saudi Arabia from Singapore sank off the coast of Yemen on Monday after suffering extensive damage. The container vessel was carrying 4,500 containers to Jeddah from Singapore. Making its way across the Indian Ocean amid bad weather the MOL Comfort suffered a crack and started taking on water causing the vessel's hull to split in half about 370 kilometers off the coast of Yemen.
The crew escaped the sinking ship on life rafts and a life boat. The heavily damaged ship sank shortly afterward, causing an as yet undetermined amount of oil to be spilled into the ocean. All of the vessel's crew, mostly Russian and Filipino nationals, were rescued by Indian coast guards.

Ship transport can be over any distance by boat, ship, sailboat or barge, over oceans and lakes, through canals or along rivers. Shipping may be for commerce, recreation or the military purpose. Virtually any material can be moved by water; however, water transport becomes impractical when material delivery is highly time-critical.

Containerization revolutionized ship transport starting in the 1970s. "General cargo" includes goods packaged in boxes, cases, pallets, and barrels. When a cargo is carried in more than one mode, it is intermodal or co-modal.

King George V bestowed the title of the "Merchant Navy" on the British merchant shipping fleets following their service in the First World War; since then a number of other nations have also adopted use of that title or the similar "Merchant Marine." The following is a partial list of the merchant navies or merchant marines of various countries. In many countries the fleet's proper name is simply the capitalized version of the common noun ("Merchant Navy").

British Merchant Navy

The British Merchant Navy comprises the British merchant ships that transport cargo and people during time of peace and war.

For much of its history, the merchant navy was the largest merchant fleet in the world, but with the decline of the British Empire in the mid-20th century it slipped down the rankings. In 1939, the merchant navy was the largest in the world with 33% of total tonnage. By 2012, the merchant navy—still remaining one of the largest in the world—held only 3% of total tonnage. As of the year ending 2012, British Merchant Marine interests consists of 1,504 ships of 100GRT or over. This includes ships either UK directly owned, parent owned or managed by a British company. This amounts to: 59,413,000GRT or alternatively 75,265,000DWT. This is according to the annual maritime shipping statistics provided by the British government and the Department for Transport.

Merchant

A merchant is a businessperson who trades in commodities produced by others, in order to earn a profit. The status of the merchant has varied during different periods of history and among different societies. Merchants have often been the subject of works of art.

Types of merchant

There are two types of merchant.

A wholesale merchant operates in the chain between produce and retail merchant, typically dealing in large quantities of goods. Some wholesale merchants only organize the movement of goods rather than move the goods themselves.

A retail merchant or retailer, sells merchandise to consumers (including businesses), usually in small quantities. A shop owner is a retail merchant.

List of spacecraft in the Culture series

This is a list of spacecraft found in the Culture novels and short stories by Iain M. Banks. Most ships in this list are members of The Culture, the hybrid society featured in many of these novels. In this setting, each Culture ship, and some others, is also an artificial intelligence with a distinctive personality. Many of these ships are significant characters in the novels.

Naming

The machine intelligences called Minds (and, as a consequence, the Culture starships that they inhabit) usually bear names that do a little more than just identify them. The Minds choose their own names, and thus they usually express something about a particular Mind's attitude, character or aims in their personal life. Warship names are similar in retaining the whimsical nature, though the humour tends to be more cynical and threatening.

Banks composed many of the Culture ships' names very carefully to express the attitude of the ship's Mind, and a few names contain puns where both meanings are appropriate to the ship's attitude. A few of the ship names, like variations on "gravitas" are also installments in running gags.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_Merchant_Marine
The United StatesMerchant Marine is the fleet of U.S. civilian-owned merchant vessels, operated by either the government or the private sector, that engage in commerce or transportation of goods and services in and out of the navigable waters of the United States. The MerchantMarine is responsible for transporting cargo and passengers during peacetime. In time of war, the Merchant Marine is capable of being an auxiliary to the Navy, and can be called upon to deliver military personnel and materiel for the military. The Merchant Marine, however, does not have a role in combat, although a merchant mariner has a responsibility to protect cargo carried aboard his ship.
Merchant mariners move cargo and passengers between nations and within the United States, and operate and maintain deep-sea merchant ships, tugboats, towboats, ferries, dredges, excursion vessels, and other waterborne craft on the oceans, the Great Lakes, rivers, canals, harbors, and other waterways.
As of2006, the United States merchant fleet numbered 465 ships and approximately 100,000 people work on U.S. flag merchant ships. Seven hundred ships owned by American interests but registered, or flagged, in other countries are not included in this number.
The federal government maintains fleets of merchant ships via organizations such as Military Sealift Command and the National Defense Reserve Fleet. In 2004, the federal government employed approximately 5% of all American water transportation workers.
In the 19th and 20th centuries, various laws fundamentally changed the course of American merchant shipping. These laws put an end to common practices such as flogging and shanghaiing, and increased shipboard safety and living standards. The United States Merchant Marine is also governed by several international conventions to promote safety and prevent pollution...Revolutionary War
The first wartime role of an identifiable United States merchant marine took place on June 12, 1775, in and around Machias, Maine. A group of citizens, hearing the news from Concord and Lexington, captured the British schooner HMS Margaretta...
Word of this revolt reached Boston, where the Continental Congress and the various colonies issued Letters of Marque to privateers. The privateers interrupted the British supply chain all along the eastern seaboard of the United States and across the Atlantic Ocean. These actions by the privateers predate both the United States Coast Guard and the United States Navy, which were formed in 1790 and 1775, respectively.
19th and 20th centuries
The merchant marine was active in subsequent wars, from the Confederate commerce raiders of the American Civil War, to the assaults on Allied commerce in the First and in the Second World Wars. 3.1 million tons of merchant ships were lost in World War II. Mariners died at a rate of 1 in 24, which was the highest rate of casualties of any service...
Merchant shipping also played its role in the wars in Vietnam and Korea. During the Korean War, the number of ships under charter grew from 6 to 255. In September1950, when the U.S. MarineCorps went ashore at Incheon, 13 Navy cargo ships, 26 chartered American, and 34 Japanese-manned merchant ships, under the operational control of Military Sea Transportation Service, participated.
During the Vietnam War, ships crewed by civilian seamen carried 95% of the supplies used by the American armed forces. Many of these ships sailed into combat zones under fire. The SS Mayaguez incident involved the capture of mariners from the American merchant ship SS Mayaguez.
During the first Gulf War, the merchant ships of the Military Sealift Command (MSC) delivered more than 11 million metric tons...

TRAINING OF ARMED MERCHANT MARINE SAILORS DURING WORLD WAR II FILM 78854

TRAINING OF ARMED MERCHANT MARINE SAILORS DURING WORLD WAR II FILM 78854

TRAINING OF ARMED MERCHANT MARINE SAILORS DURING WORLD WAR II FILM 78854

Made during WWII by the British Ministry of Information, this Merchant Marine film was directed by J.B. Holmes, and compares to other films of the era including Men of the LightShip. It shows the sinking of a British merchant ship by Nazi torpedo and the aftermath. It contains very realistic footage of a ship sinking, the evacuation of the crew, and rescue operations by coast guardsmen. This is followed by a lengthy segment about the defensive training of merchant marine members, including training to use large caliber artillery pieces and other anti-submarine weapons.
The players in this film are apparently actual British officers and merchant seamen. The narrator being one of the crew represented. At mark 1:00 is the seamen crew conversing between one another then suddenly a torpedo attack occurred at mark 2:30. They tried helping each other aboard the ship and off the sea they went as seen at mark 4:10. Radio stations were called and hence, a life guard boat was sent. At mark 5:26, they all made their way back to the shore in a boat where the wounded seamen crews are been taken care of as seen at mark 5:40. At mark 6:15, is the seamen’s mission. Each member talked on the attack. At mark 7:15, they left to visit the hospitalized crew members. At mark 8:00 merchant marine members receive new defense training, including how to load a torpedo and guns. At mark 10:25, they put into practice what they have been taught. At mark 10:35, he received his license to shoot in the McAllister lines. At mark 11:15, there is a ship named Odysseus here.
At mark 12:05, another meeting is seen between the Admiral who is to be the commodore of the convoy and the crew men. He asked about the captain of the ship and their plans. Around 5 o’clock, we have the convoy on their way as seen at mark 12:30. This convoy involves about 50 ships. Here they are amidst fog on the water. Nobody like shore so they try maneuver their navigation through the fog. At mark 14:00, they are seen communicating their navigation direction to one another. At mark 14:28, they shared some tea between each other and some talk about their journey. The admirals and commodore are seen at mark 15:30 navigating on their maps. Also at mark 16:00, the crew men are also seen planning on their journey. They are bothered about hitting a mine field because of the blur vision they have due to the fogs around. At mark 18:30, they see lights and they changed course to the direction. They got through that already and here at mark 19:34, they have a new day, bright new morning, a clear sky. Everybody settles down nicely and comfortably except young Nipper as seen at mark 19:30.
They aren’t ready for assault yet; hence, they all had some fun and made themselves comfortable. At mark 21:45, an alarm was rung for emergency attacks placing gun men in sight due to a sighted enemy submarine. They fired several shots from their gun and alas they hit their target. A U-boat was present in the sea and through coordinated firing they got their target. This is seen at mark 23:00. They commended each other on the success of their mission. At mark 23:30, is a log book on their mission written by one of the crew.

Six Months At Sea In The Merchant Marine

In this short documentary, I tried to answer some of the common questions that I usually get about shipping. The footage I took myself using fairly basic cameras that I could fit in my pocket while I was on the job as a deckhand. The story follows me on a six month journey around the world on a container ship which was on a run between New York and Singapore via the Suez Canal. This was my first time going to sea on a large ship so everything was relatively new to me, therefore please excuse the couple of shipping terms I misused (such as saying "license" when I should have said "credential"). I have been on many ships since and will continue to ship out for the foreseeable future. Thanks for watching.

In this short documentary, I tried to answer some of the common questions that I usually get about shipping. The footage I took myself using fairly basic cameras that I could fit in my pocket while I was on the job as a deckhand. The story follows me on a six month journey around the world on a container ship which was on a run between New York and Singapore via the Suez Canal. This was my first time going to sea on a large ship so everything was relatively new to me, therefore please excuse the couple of shipping terms I misused (such as saying "license" when I should have said "credential"). I have been on many ships since and will continue to ship out for the foreseeable future. Thanks for watching.

A container ship travelling to Saudi Arabia from Singapore sank off the coast of Yemen on Monday after suffering extensive damage. The container vessel was carrying 4,500 containers to Jeddah from Singapore. Making its way across the Indian Ocean amid bad weather the MOL Comfort suffered a crack and started taking on water causing the vessel's hull to split in half about 370 kilometers off the coast of Yemen.
The crew escaped the sinking ship on life rafts and a life boat. The heavily damaged ship sank shortly afterward, causing an as yet undetermined amount of oil to be spilled into the ocean. All of the vessel's crew, mostly Russian and Filipino nationals, were rescued by Indian coast guards.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_Merchant_Marine
The United StatesMerchant Marine is the fleet of U.S. civilian-owned merchant vessels, operated by either the government or the private sector, that engage in commerce or transportation of goods and services in and out of the navigable waters of the United States. The MerchantMarine is responsible for transporting cargo and passengers during peacetime. In time of war, the Merchant Marine is capable of being an auxiliary to the Navy, and can be called upon to deliver military personnel and materiel for the military. The Merchant Marine, however, does not have a role in combat, although a merchant mariner has a responsibility to protect cargo carried aboard his ship.
Merchant mariners move cargo and passengers between nations and within the United States, and operate and maintain deep-sea merchant ships, tugboats, towboats, ferries, dredges, excursion vessels, and other waterborne craft on the oceans, the Great Lakes, rivers, canals, harbors, and other waterways.
As of2006, the United States merchant fleet numbered 465 ships and approximately 100,000 people work on U.S. flag merchant ships. Seven hundred ships owned by American interests but registered, or flagged, in other countries are not included in this number.
The federal government maintains fleets of merchant ships via organizations such as Military Sealift Command and the National Defense Reserve Fleet. In 2004, the federal government employed approximately 5% of all American water transportation workers.
In the 19th and 20th centuries, various laws fundamentally changed the course of American merchant shipping. These laws put an end to common practices such as flogging and shanghaiing, and increased shipboard safety and living standards. The United States Merchant Marine is also governed by several international conventions to promote safety and prevent pollution...Revolutionary War
The first wartime role of an identifiable United States merchant marine took place on June 12, 1775, in and around Machias, Maine. A group of citizens, hearing the news from Concord and Lexington, captured the British schooner HMS Margaretta...
Word of this revolt reached Boston, where the Continental Congress and the various colonies issued Letters of Marque to privateers. The privateers interrupted the British supply chain all along the eastern seaboard of the United States and across the Atlantic Ocean. These actions by the privateers predate both the United States Coast Guard and the United States Navy, which were formed in 1790 and 1775, respectively.
19th and 20th centuries
The merchant marine was active in subsequent wars, from the Confederate commerce raiders of the American Civil War, to the assaults on Allied commerce in the First and in the Second World Wars. 3.1 million tons of merchant ships were lost in World War II. Mariners died at a rate of 1 in 24, which was the highest rate of casualties of any service...
Merchant shipping also played its role in the wars in Vietnam and Korea. During the Korean War, the number of ships under charter grew from 6 to 255. In September1950, when the U.S. MarineCorps went ashore at Incheon, 13 Navy cargo ships, 26 chartered American, and 34 Japanese-manned merchant ships, under the operational control of Military Sea Transportation Service, participated.
During the Vietnam War, ships crewed by civilian seamen carried 95% of the supplies used by the American armed forces. Many of these ships sailed into combat zones under fire. The SS Mayaguez incident involved the capture of mariners from the American merchant ship SS Mayaguez.
During the first Gulf War, the merchant ships of the Military Sealift Command (MSC) delivered more than 11 million metric tons...

Crew member chipping job view video to view how crew members work hard on merchant ships staying away from their family members

Made during WWII by the British Ministry of Information, this Merchant Marine film was directed by J.B. Holmes, and compares to other films of the era including Men of the LightShip. It shows the sinking of a British merchant ship by Nazi torpedo and the aftermath. It contains very realistic footage of a ship sinking, the evacuation of the crew, and rescue operations by coast guardsmen. This is followed by a lengthy segment about the defensive training of merchant marine members, including training to use large caliber artillery pieces and other anti-submarine weapons.
The players in this film are apparently actual British officers and merchant seamen. The narrator being one of the crew represented. At mark 1:00 is the seamen crew conversing between one another then suddenly a torpedo attack occurred at mark 2:30. They tried helping each other aboard the ship and off the sea they went as seen at mark 4:10. Radio stations were called and hence, a life guard boat was sent. At mark 5:26, they all made their way back to the shore in a boat where the wounded seamen crews are been taken care of as seen at mark 5:40. At mark 6:15, is the seamen’s mission. Each member talked on the attack. At mark 7:15, they left to visit the hospitalized crew members. At mark 8:00 merchant marine members receive new defense training, including how to load a torpedo and guns. At mark 10:25, they put into practice what they have been taught. At mark 10:35, he received his license to shoot in the McAllister lines. At mark 11:15, there is a ship named Odysseus here.
At mark 12:05, another meeting is seen between the Admiral who is to be the commodore of the convoy and the crew men. He asked about the captain of the ship and their plans. Around 5 o’clock, we have the convoy on their way as seen at mark 12:30. This convoy involves about 50 ships. Here they are amidst fog on the water. Nobody like shore so they try maneuver their navigation through the fog. At mark 14:00, they are seen communicating their navigation direction to one another. At mark 14:28, they shared some tea between each other and some talk about their journey. The admirals and commodore are seen at mark 15:30 navigating on their maps. Also at mark 16:00, the crew men are also seen planning on their journey. They are bothered about hitting a mine field because of the blur vision they have due to the fogs around. At mark 18:30, they see lights and they changed course to the direction. They got through that already and here at mark 19:34, they have a new day, bright new morning, a clear sky. Everybody settles down nicely and comfortably except young Nipper as seen at mark 19:30.
They aren’t ready for assault yet; hence, they all had some fun and made themselves comfortable. At mark 21:45, an alarm was rung for emergency attacks placing gun men in sight due to a sighted enemy submarine. They fired several shots from their gun and alas they hit their target. A U-boat was present in the sea and through coordinated firing they got their target. This is seen at mark 23:00. They commended each other on the success of their mission. At mark 23:30, is a log book on their mission written by one of the crew.

Nobody like shore so they try maneuver their navigation through the fog. At mark 14:00, they are seen communicating their navigation direction to one another. At mark 14:28, they shared some tea between each other and some talk about their journey. The admirals and commodore are seen at mark 15:30 navigating on their maps. Also at mark 16:00, the crew men are also seen planning on their journey. They are bothered about hitting a mine field because of the blur vision they have due to the fogs around. At mark 18:30, they see lights and they changed course to the direction. They got through that already and here at mark 19:34, they have a new day, bright new morning, a clear sky. Everybody settles down nicely and comfortably except young Nipper as seen at mark 19:30.
They aren’t ready for assault yet; hence, they all had some fun and made themselves comfortable. At mark 21:45, an alarm was rung for emergency attacks placing gun men in sight due to a sighted enemy submarine. They fired several shots from their gun and alas they hit their target. A U-boat was present in the sea and through coordinated firing they got their target. This is seen at mark 23:00. They commended each other on the success of their mission. At mark 23:30, is a log book on their mission written by one of the crew.

Six Months At Sea In The Merchant Marine

In this short documentary, I tried to answer some of the common questions that I usually get about shipping. The footage I took myself using fairly basic cameras that I could fit in my pocket while I was on the job as a deckhand. The story follows me on a six month journey around the world on a container ship which was on a run between New York and Singapore via the Suez Canal. This was my first time going to sea on a large ship so everything was relatively new to me, therefore please excuse the couple of shipping terms I misused (such as saying "license" when I should have said "credential"). I have been on many ships since and will continue to ship out for the foreseeable future. Thanks for watching.

TRAINING OF ARMED MERCHANT MARINE SAILORS DURING WORLD WAR II FILM 78854

Made during WWII by the British Ministry of Information, this Merchant Marine film was directed by J.B. Holmes, and compares to other films of the era including Men of the LightShip. It shows the sinking of a British merchant ship by Nazi torpedo and the aftermath. It contains very realistic footage of a ship sinking, the evacuation of the crew, and rescue operations by coast guardsmen. This is followed by a lengthy segment about the defensive training of merchant marine members, including training to use large caliber artillery pieces and other anti-submarine weapons.
The players in this film are apparently actual British officers and merchant seamen. The narrator being one of the crew represented. At mark 1:00 is the seamen crew conversing between one another then suddenly a torpedo at...

InsideOil Tankers - Documentary FilmsAll over the world, tanker operations are constantly moving. Oil tankers are ships specially designed for the bulk transport of either unrefined crude oil or petrochemicals. Their size classes can range from coastal or inland tankers of a few thousand metric tons of deadweight (DWT) to a colossal amount of 550,000 DWT. These giant specialized ships transport approximately two billion metric tons of oil across the sea every year.
Crude oil is one of the world's most consumed sources of energy. Oil tankers, therefore, play a significant role in the way the country operates. Because of the products they are built to carry, without proper maintenance, these mammoth ships of black ...

The players in this film are apparently actual British officers and merchant seamen. The narrator being one of the crew represented. At mark 1:00 is the seamen crew conversing between one another then suddenly a torpedo attack occurred at mark 2:30. They tried helping each other aboard the ship and off the sea they went as seen at mark 4:10. Radio stations were called and hence, a life guard boat was sent. At mark 5:26, they all made their way back to the shore in a boat where the wounded seamen crews are been taken care of as seen at mark 5:40. At mark 6:15, is the seamen’s mission. Each member talked on the attack. At mark 7:15, they left to visit the hospitalized crew members. At mark 8:00 merchant marine members receive new defense training, including how to load a torpedo and guns. At mark 10:25, they put into practice what they have been taught. At mark 10:35, he received his license to shoot in the McAllister lines. At mark 11:15, there is a ship named Odysseus here.
At mark 12:05, another meeting is seen between the Admiral who is to be the commodore of the convoy and the crew men. He asked about the captain of the ship and their plans. Around 5 o’clock, we have the convoy on their way as seen at mark 12:30. This convoy involves about 50 ships. Here they are amidst fog on the water. Nobody like shore so they try maneuver their navigation through the fog. At mark 14:00, they are seen communicating their navigation direction to one another. At mark 14:28, they shared some tea between each other and some talk about their journey. The admirals and commodore are seen at mark 15:30 navigating on their maps. Also at mark 16:00, the crew men are also seen planning on their journey. They are bothered about hitting a mine field because of the blur vision they have due to the fogs around. At mark 18:30, they see lights and they changed course to the direction. They got through that already and here at mark 19:34, they have a new day, bright new morning, a clear sky. Everybody settles down nicely and comfortably except young Nipper as seen at mark 19:30.
They aren’t ready for assault yet; hence, they all had some fun and made themselves comfortable. At mark 21:45, an alarm was rung for emergency attacks placing gun men in sight due to a sighted enemy submarine. They fired several shots from their gun and alas they hit their target. A U-boat was present in the sea and through coordinated firing they got their target. This is seen at mark 23:00. They commended each other on the success of their mission. At mark 23:30, is a log book on their mission written by one of the crew.

InsideOil Tankers - Documentary FilmsAll over the world, tanker operations are constantly moving. Oil tankers are ships specially designed for the bulk transport of either unrefined crude oil or petrochemicals. Their size classes can range from coastal or inland tankers of a few thousand metric tons of deadweight (DWT) to a colossal amount of 550,000 DWT. These giant specialized ships transport approximately two billion metric tons of oil across the sea every year.
Crude oil is one of the world's most consumed sources of energy. Oil tankers, therefore, play a significant role in the way the country operates. Because of the products they are built to carry, without proper maintenance, these mammoth ships of black gold can also pose a threat on the environment.
To ensure that an oil tanker does not severely impact the environment, oil companies must employ an expert and highly experienced ship management service to oversee tanker operations. They must also routinely check their oil tankers for maintenance purposes. Fixing the smallest dent, scratch or crack can mean the difference between safe sailing across miles of seawater and a devastating oil spill.
On board the ship, safety measures should be strictly imposed. Because of the hazardous - and often flammable - nature of the materials being transported, the possession of flammable objects should be avoided if not prohibited entirely to avoid accidents, which can threaten the lives of the people on the ship, as well as the surrounding marine life.
Whether at sea or anchored at a dock, tanker operations and safety measures should still be strictly implemented to prevent the ship from negatively affecting the environment.

Andreas Chrysostomou is a naval architect who grew up through the ranks and last year was Nomination for IMO as a candidate for the position of Secretary-General at the International Maritime Organisation, IMO.
Andreas was not elected in the political game of electing the head of one of the special agencies of the United Nations, UN, but he shares his experiences from taking part in the process. He got the possibility to elaborate on how he sees his dream of governing an international body like that.
Andreas Chrysostomou is not new to the IMO system, in 1999 he was elected as Chairman of the Design and Equipment Subcommittee and 2003 he was elected as Chairman of the MarineEnvironment Protection Committee (MEPC) a position he held until 2013.
As you will hear, Andreas talks a lot about e-navigation, which is not navigation but everything where navigation gets involved, and he thinks that the shipping industry should embrace the new technology for many reasons.
Thank you for listening. If you want to give a shout-out to Andreas, you reach him via his Twitter account @An_Chr or by including the @ShippingPodcast in your tweet ;)

Six Months At Sea In The Merchant Marine

In this short documentary, I tried to answer some of the common questions that I usually get about shipping. The footage I took myself using fairly basic cameras that I could fit in my pocket while I was on the job as a deckhand. The story follows me on a six month journey around the world on a container ship which was on a run between New York and Singapore via the Suez Canal. This was my first time going to sea on a large ship so everything was relatively new to me, therefore please excuse the couple of shipping terms I misused (such as saying "license" when I should have said "credential"). I have been on many ships since and will continue to ship out for the foreseeable future. Thanks for watching.

Day of life on board a merchant ship

My amateur edit about living and working on board a vessel. It's a daily routine on deck, ...

Merchant vessel splits in two off Yemeni coast

A container ship travelling to Saudi Arabia from Singapore sank off the coast of Yemen on Monday after suffering extensive damage. The container vessel was carrying 4,500 containers to Jeddah from Singapore. Making its way across the Indian Ocean amid bad weather the MOL Comfort suffered a crack and started taking on water causing the vessel's hull to split in half about 370 kilometers off the coast of Yemen.
The crew escaped the sinking ship on life rafts and a life boat. The heavily damaged ship sank shortly afterward, causing an as yet undetermined amount of oil to be spilled into the ocean. All of the vessel's crew, mostly Russian and Filipino nationals, were rescued by Indian coast guards.

Merchant Marine in WWII: "Men and the Sea" 1943 US War Shipping Administration

"Short documentary shows how U.S. merchant seamen were trained in seamanship, signaling, gunnery and radio operation."
Public domain film from the US National Archives, slightly cropped to remove uneven edges, with the aspect ratio corrected, and mild video noise reduction applied.
The soundtrack was also processed with volume normalization, noise reduction, clipping reduction, and/or equalization (the resulting sound, though not perfect, is far less noisy than the original).

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_Merchant_Marine
The United StatesMerchant Marine is the fleet of U.S. civilian-owned merchant vessels, operated by either the government or the private sector, that engage in commerce or transportation of goods and services in and out of the navigable waters of the United States. The MerchantMarine is responsible for transporting cargo and passengers during peacetime. In time of war, the Merchant Marine is capable of being an auxiliary to the Navy, and can be called upon to deliver military personnel and materiel for the military. The Merchant Marine, however, does not have a role in combat, although a merchant mariner has a responsibility to protect cargo carried aboard his ship.
Merchant mariners move cargo and passengers between nations and within the United States, and operate and maintain deep-sea merchant ships, tugboats, towboats, ferries, dredges, excursion vessels, and other waterborne craft on the oceans, the Great Lakes, rivers, canals, harbors, and other waterways.
As of2006, the United States merchant fleet numbered 465 ships and approximately 100,000 people work on U.S. flag merchant ships. Seven hundred ships owned by American interests but registered, or flagged, in other countries are not included in this number.
The federal government maintains fleets of merchant ships via organizations such as Military Sealift Command and the National Defense Reserve Fleet. In 2004, the federal government employed approximately 5% of all American water transportation workers.
In the 19th and 20th centuries, various laws fundamentally changed the course of American merchant shipping. These laws put an end to common practices such as flogging and shanghaiing, and increased shipboard safety and living standards. The United States Merchant Marine is also governed by several international conventions to promote safety and prevent pollution...Revolutionary War
The first wartime role of an identifiable United States merchant marine took place on June 12, 1775, in and around Machias, Maine. A group of citizens, hearing the news from Concord and Lexington, captured the British schooner HMS Margaretta...
Word of this revolt reached Boston, where the Continental Congress and the various colonies issued Letters of Marque to privateers. The privateers interrupted the British supply chain all along the eastern seaboard of the United States and across the Atlantic Ocean. These actions by the privateers predate both the United States Coast Guard and the United States Navy, which were formed in 1790 and 1775, respectively.
19th and 20th centuries
The merchant marine was active in subsequent wars, from the Confederate commerce raiders of the American Civil War, to the assaults on Allied commerce in the First and in the Second World Wars. 3.1 million tons of merchant ships were lost in World War II. Mariners died at a rate of 1 in 24, which was the highest rate of casualties of any service...
Merchant shipping also played its role in the wars in Vietnam and Korea. During the Korean War, the number of ships under charter grew from 6 to 255. In September1950, when the U.S. MarineCorps went ashore at Incheon, 13 Navy cargo ships, 26 chartered American, and 34 Japanese-manned merchant ships, under the operational control of Military Sea Transportation Service, participated.
During the Vietnam War, ships crewed by civilian seamen carried 95% of the supplies used by the American armed forces. Many of these ships sailed into combat zones under fire. The SS Mayaguez incident involved the capture of mariners from the American merchant ship SS Mayaguez.
During the first Gulf War, the merchant ships of the Military Sealift Command (MSC) delivered more than 11 million metric tons...

Six Months At Sea In The Merchant Marine

In this short documentary, I tried to answer some of the common questions that I usually get about shipping. The footage I took myself using fairly basic cameras that I could fit in my pocket while I was on the job as a deckhand. The story follows me on a six month journey around the world on a container ship which was on a run between New York and Singapore via the Suez Canal. This was my first time going to sea on a large ship so everything was relatively new to me, therefore please excuse the couple of shipping terms I misused (such as saying "license" when I should have said "credential"). I have been on many ships since and will continue to ship out for the foreseeable future. Thanks for watching.

TRAINING OF ARMED MERCHANT MARINE SAILORS DURING WORLD WAR II FILM 78854

Made during WWII by the British Ministry of Information, this Merchant Marine film was directed by J.B. Holmes, and compares to other films of the era including Men of the LightShip. It shows the sinking of a British merchant ship by Nazi torpedo and the aftermath. It contains very realistic footage of a ship sinking, the evacuation of the crew, and rescue operations by coast guardsmen. This is followed by a lengthy segment about the defensive training of merchant marine members, including training to use large caliber artillery pieces and other anti-submarine weapons.
The players in this film are apparently actual British officers and merchant seamen. The narrator being one of the crew represented. At mark 1:00 is the seamen crew conversing between one another then suddenly a torpedo attack occurred at mark 2:30. They tried helping each other aboard the ship and off the sea they went as seen at mark 4:10. Radio stations were called and hence, a life guard boat was sent. At mark 5:26, they all made their way back to the shore in a boat where the wounded seamen crews are been taken care of as seen at mark 5:40. At mark 6:15, is the seamen’s mission. Each member talked on the attack. At mark 7:15, they left to visit the hospitalized crew members. At mark 8:00 merchant marine members receive new defense training, including how to load a torpedo and guns. At mark 10:25, they put into practice what they have been taught. At mark 10:35, he received his license to shoot in the McAllister lines. At mark 11:15, there is a ship named Odysseus here.
At mark 12:05, another meeting is seen between the Admiral who is to be the commodore of the convoy and the crew men. He asked about the captain of the ship and their plans. Around 5 o’clock, we have the convoy on their way as seen at mark 12:30. This convoy involves about 50 ships. Here they are amidst fog on the water. Nobody like shore so they try maneuver their navigation through the fog. At mark 14:00, they are seen communicating their navigation direction to one another. At mark 14:28, they shared some tea between each other and some talk about their journey. The admirals and commodore are seen at mark 15:30 navigating on their maps. Also at mark 16:00, the crew men are also seen planning on their journey. They are bothered about hitting a mine field because of the blur vision they have due to the fogs around. At mark 18:30, they see lights and they changed course to the direction. They got through that already and here at mark 19:34, they have a new day, bright new morning, a clear sky. Everybody settles down nicely and comfortably except young Nipper as seen at mark 19:30.
They aren’t ready for assault yet; hence, they all had some fun and made themselves comfortable. At mark 21:45, an alarm was rung for emergency attacks placing gun men in sight due to a sighted enemy submarine. They fired several shots from their gun and alas they hit their target. A U-boat was present in the sea and through coordinated firing they got their target. This is seen at mark 23:00. They commended each other on the success of their mission. At mark 23:30, is a log book on their mission written by one of the crew.

Inside Oil Tankers - Documentary Films

CLICK HERE - http://activeterium.com/1DCR - FOR MORE FREE DOCUMENTARIES
InsideOil Tankers - Documentary FilmsAll over the world, tanker operations are constantly moving. Oil tankers are ships specially designed for the bulk transport of either unrefined crude oil or petrochemicals. Their size classes can range from coastal or inland tankers of a few thousand metric tons of deadweight (DWT) to a colossal amount of 550,000 DWT. These giant specialized ships transport approximately two billion metric tons of oil across the sea every year.
Crude oil is one of the world's most consumed sources of energy. Oil tankers, therefore, play a significant role in the way the country operates. Because of the products they are built to carry, without proper maintenance, these mammoth ships of black gold can also pose a threat on the environment.
To ensure that an oil tanker does not severely impact the environment, oil companies must employ an expert and highly experienced ship management service to oversee tanker operations. They must also routinely check their oil tankers for maintenance purposes. Fixing the smallest dent, scratch or crack can mean the difference between safe sailing across miles of seawater and a devastating oil spill.
On board the ship, safety measures should be strictly imposed. Because of the hazardous - and often flammable - nature of the materials being transported, the possession of flammable objects should be avoided if not prohibited entirely to avoid accidents, which can threaten the lives of the people on the ship, as well as the surrounding marine life.
Whether at sea or anchored at a dock, tanker operations and safety measures should still be strictly implemented to prevent the ship from negatively affecting the environment.

Andreas was not elected in the political game of electing the head of one of the special agencies of the United Nations, UN, but he shares his experiences from taking part in the process. He got the possibility to elaborate on how he sees his dream of governing an international body like that.
Andreas Chrysostomou is not new to the IMO system, in 1999 he was elected as Chairman of the Design and Equipment Subcommittee and 2003 he was elected as Chairman of the MarineEnvironment Protection Committee (MEPC) a position he held until 2013.
As you will hear, Andreas talks a lot about e-navigation, which is not navigation but everything where navigation gets involved, and he thinks that the shipping industry should embrace the new technology for many reasons.
Thank you for listening. If you want to give a shout-out to Andreas, you reach him via his Twitter account @An_Chr or by including the @ShippingPodcast in your tweet ;)
